The 2022 Richmond upon Thames London Borough Council election took place on 5 May 2022. All 54 members of Richmond upon Thames London Borough Council were elected. The elections took place alongside local elections in the other London boroughs and elections to local authorities across the United Kingdom.

The 2022 election took place under new election boundaries, with the number of councillors remaining the same. The Liberal Democrats had controlled the council since the previous election in 2018, and increased their majority, ending on 48 seats. The Green Party formed the largest opposition group on five seats, with the Conservative Party dropping from 11 seats to 1 seat; they would subsequently lose their final seat in a 2024 by-election.
